adele

2014-06-10 Thread Jérôme Pinguet
Hello!

I'm Jerome from France, GPG user and cryptoparty organizer in Marseille.
I just joined the list! It seems to be a very friendly place.

I would like to make a french speaking adele (The friendly GPG Robot)
available to the community of french speaking GPG evangelists and beginners.

Is there a source code or a recipe available somewhere? Is it written in
english? If everything is in german, it's ok, i have basic skills in
german, and with a little help from the community, I'll manage to clone
and translate the robot. But I don't have the skill and time to write
another one from scratch.

The only information about Adele I could find about are those two messages:

First message by Werner (2007):
http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-de/2007-March/000149.html saying
that it's not a free software.
Second message by Bernhard Reiter (2009)
http://lists.wald.intevation.org/pipermail/gpg4win-devel/2009-September/000869.html
asking about the development of a free software replacement robot.

English speaking Adele say it's made by www.g-n-u.de I guess i'll have
to contact them also.

Do you have more information?

Thank you.

jérôme

Do you know if there are translations of the fsf-guide planned?

That is easy.  Build in this order:

speedo_spkgs  = \
libgpg-error npth libgcrypt  \
zlib libiconv gettext \
libassuan libksba gnupg \
libffi glib pkg-config \
gpgme \
libpng \
gdk-pixbuf atk pixman cairo pango gtk+ \
pinentry gpa

For just gnupg this is sufficient:

speedo_spkgs  = \
libgpg-error npth libgcrypt  \
zlib libiconv gettext \
libassuan libksba gnupg

If you need gpgme with glib support you need to install a glib-dev
package first or build everything up to gpgme.


Salam-Shalom,

   Werner

please still add them and possibly add a date and if you are unsure
just add the fact that you are unsure because of reason X.

I agree with the other writers:
We must first make good information available!
And then we can point out other people to this central place
which is easier to keep uptodate.

Hypertext is very suited for this, because the knowledge and desires of users 
will be very different, so they can jump from level to level if they want to 
learn more.

A wiki is well suited because it shall make it easier for more people
to contribute and write, but keep a consolidated (brief) version in the end.

Best,
Bernhard

A dependency diagram would be cool to have! :)

From time to time I will try to explain something, convinced that I am
*not* the best choice to explain it, in the hope that someone more
knowledgable will correct my errors.  I figure that, if I trot out my
limited knowledge, I may help someone to understand just a bit, and I
too may learn something in the process.

That is my suggestion as well.

Re: New user needs some help

2014-06-10 Thread Casey Marshall
Hi Kristian,
I've fixed inaccuracies in the Hockeypuck total key count. Hockeypuck
now uses an exact row count, updated in the background every few hours
(at release hockeypuck_1.0.1~a2~dev20140609+8e0dfc6).

keys.cmarstech.com has been updated to this latest version, which is
available in the unstable PPA, ppa:hockeypuck/unstable. I'll be
proposing this fix along with a few others into trusty/universe soon.

Apologies for any confusion this has caused.

-Casey
